Well, I’ve finally done it! I’ve been griping about having to use Blogger for awhile (to the dismay of many, I’m sure!), and I finally couldn’t take it anymore. The Blogger interface is too ‘user friendly’, meaning it’s hard to get into the code up to your elbows and make it do what you want it to do. It’s also very difficult for me, as a former freelance designer and developer, to not be able to add and remove things I want from the code base.
So, with the help of my beautiful host Faith (you may know her as politically charged @RiotDollie on Twitter) I now have a new home for my blog, which is now powered by the amazing WordPress! The only issue I have with WordPress was it’s import feature which turned my tags into categories, but hopefully I’ll have some time to do a quick fix on Monday.
I don’t have much time tonight, but I thought I’d do something I rarely do these days and post some actual pictures. Beware, these were taken with my crappy phone and so there’s no real clarity to them – my usual before and after:
